Clinical Evaluation of Novel Laproscopic Technique in Inguinal Hernia Repair: Desarda Technique

Background: Inguinal hernia is one of the commonest surgical problems encountered by surgeons worldwide. Because of frequency of occurrence of hernia cases, this remains an important medical problem.

Methodology: Desarda's inguinal hernia repair method for adults is being investigated in this prospective, interventional trial.  The study included patients who met the inclusion criteria.  The study examined the participants' clinical profile as well as postoperative variables such as recurrence rate, incidence of chronic groin pain, time needed to return to basic activities, and postoperative pain.

Results: The age group between 51 and 60 years old had the highest hernia incidence (23.33%), followed by those between 31 and 40 years old (20.66%).  The overall number of cases was disproportionately male.  Patients with right-sided hernias were frequently observed.  An indirect form of inguinal hernia was prevalent in the cohort, affecting about 82% of patients.  In this group, 12.5% of patients had a persistent cough, while 21.66% smoked regularly.  In 34.16%, 14.16%, and 18.3% of patients, hypertension, diabetes, and urinary obstructive symptoms were observed.  60 minutes was the average operating time [40–80 minutes]. On Days 1, 7, and 30, the visual analogue scale scores for post-operative pain were 3.35, 0.95, and 0.008, respectively.  It took 24 hours, which is a lot shorter time, to resume routine activities.  Out of 120 patients, cord oedema [5%] was the most frequent consequence after surgical site infection [2.5%] and seroma.

Conclusion: Adults with a lower risk of complications can consider Desarda's inguinal hernia repair procedure.
